I use current satellite plus pro leds. The intensity and spectrum are adjustable unlike most Finnex models.

Would 1 plus pro be good for low to medium light plants on a 75gallon aquarium or would i need 2

1 plus pro, at full power, is more than enough to grow high light plants. You are going to have to turn it down for low to medium light plants.

Single plus pro on my 75.

I've read about these and they do seem like very good lights. The only thing for me is if you are getting one for a 75 gallon you are going to spend quite a bit. So if money isn't an issue go for it.

They may have some other models I believe but I'm only familiar with the stingray and the planted +. The stingray for me has been more then enough on medium light plants.
